What landlords must know when their tenant gives notice to vacate

Here is a step-by-step guide from RealRenta to get the best result when your tenant gives you notice to vacate:

·        The notice to vacate should be sent to you in writing from your tenant

·        Call your tenant and confirm that you will be sending them a letter (use RealRenta to send all communications) confirming the vacate date and the amount of rent owing as well as details of the final inspection.

·        Send the tenant a copy of the original property condition report via the RealRenta platform.

·        Advertiser your property on RealRenta.com.au for Free

·        Arrange a pre-vacate inspection with your tenant

·        Make sure that the tenant has handed back the correct keys

·        Ask for a copy of the carpet cleaning receipt before refunding the bond

·        Ask your tenant for an address to forward any mail

·       Perform the final inspection and discuss any issues with the tenant and come to agreement on what needs to be taken from the bond (if applicable)

·        Fill out the bond claim form online and print it for you and the tenant to sign

·        Send the bond form to the bond board

·     Advertising increases the exposure of your property and more exposure drives competition for your property. 

·     Online advertising dramatically increases this exposure because most renters these days, head straight for the internet when looking for properties to rent.
